Ground turkey is lower in fat, while ground pork can be less expensive.

cheddar cheese

🥗Healthier: reduced-fat cheese

💰Cheaper: American cheese

Reduced-fat cheese cuts calories, and American cheese is often cheaper.

Start by browning 2 pounds of ground beef in a pan and drain the fat.

Chop 6-7 stalks of celery and 1 onion in a blender with a little water until finely chopped.

Add the chopped celery and onion to the drained beef in the pan.

Add 2 cans of tomato soup (do not add water) to the mixture.

Stir in 1 cup of ketchup.

Add 1/2 cup of brown sugar to the mixture and stir well.

Let the mixture simmer on medium heat to reduce and thicken, stirring occasionally.

Add a couple ounces of Worcestershire sauce for flavor and stir again.
